"In all honesty, I've never enjoyed 'working out', I've danced professionally for most of my life (still take class from time to time), and participate in a variety of sports activities: track & field, karate, scuba & golf to name a few. That's how I stay in shape.These days however, I realize it takes a little more to keep the extra pounds off, and looking good as well as feeling good.
Coley, has honestly helped me achieve just that. With his understanding of the body, he designed an exercise routine for my "complete" wellness and fitness needs. I have a better mental approach to staying in shape, because with him I see results, with him I stay encouraged, and believe me, it makes a huge difference; and that's without lifting weights, or being on an ultra restrictive diet. I eat healthier, sleep better, and get to keep wearing all the clothes I love!! That was a must for me! I've never trusted personal trainers before, but I do trust Coley Speaks. I've referred him to my friends, a number of whom have hired him with great success. Their needs were different from mine, so he designed a program specifically for them that produced results, and now they're referring him to their friends and colleagues! I'm happy about the way I look, I'm happy about the way I feel, and most importantly, I'm happy about the person I am because of it. And I think it shows!"

"I chose to train with SS3D because I heard great things from a friend of mine who trained with them and got amazing results in the first few weeks. My experience with SS3D was amazing! I never thought my body could go as far as it went during our workouts. I got great results within a couple of weeks! I felt emotionally stronger and physically lighter on my feet. Coley is an amazing person and he encouraged me to keep working hard at what I love to do. He helped me understand that hard work pays off! For anyone considering training with SS3D, I would say, ‘if you want great results ASAP, then go with SS3D!’”

“Working out with Coley is definitely a lifestyle changer. If you want someone to motivate, challenge and inspire you to stay in the zone, then Coley Speaks is the trainer for you.”

"Coley was in tune with me from the very beginning in our fitness evaluation. I was so frustrated with the lack of results that I was getting from my workouts. I was working out six days a week and had completely changed my diet. Yet after almost two months of this rigorous new regime I had gained almost 5 lbs.

When I met with Coley he listened to everything I said and when I explained what I was eating Coley did some research and found out that with my family medical history and blood type,there were factors working against me in my workouts and diet. So he tweaked my diet, readjusted my workouts, and within the first two weeks I lost 6 lbs! By the sixth week I had dropped a couple more pounds and my friends were noticing a dramatic difference in body.

I'm an actress currently working on a show so seeing my wardrobe rack change completely was so exciting. I didn't always feel like working out but Coley pushed me and I would feel so good when we were done. He encouraged me in all the right ways that were specific to me and I was never bored with our workouts. He helped me develop an understanding of how my body responds to certain foods and equipped me with what I needed to do it on my own."

"I met Coley at Big 5. I was there to take back my second defective jump rope. Coley spotted me, a total stranger, in the parking lot, and called out, "That's my favorite piece of equipment right there!" I was already prepared to take on the management at Big 5, so I was ready to take on Coley. I said, "Actually, it's already breaking apart, and I've had it for only a day!" With this big, warm smile he came up and said he'd go with me to help me find the best jump rope, and he did! And that's how I came to know Coley. One of the best chance meetings I've ever had. I was looking for a personal trainer, and I felt immediately from his character and joy of life that he was going to be the right trainer for me.

I was right. When you work with a trainer, you need someone who is going to take a deep interest in you, someone who is going to care enough about your goals to ask the deep questions about who you are and where you want to go with all this. That's Coley. I belong to a gym, and I see some of the trainers there working with clients. The other day, I saw a trainer who was watching the TV while his client was sweating it out on the equipment. Coley is the opposite. It's like he's not just telling you what to do but doing it with you. I feel him 100% focused on me, making sure my form is right, keeping me motivated and focused on my goal at all times and helping me to 'dig deep.'

His workouts are amazing. I told him I needed something that would get me results but that I would still enjoy doing. For me, that means not too long at the gym and changing it up to keep me interested and to keep me from getting frustrated. Coley measured and assessed my whole body and fitness level, and, over the course of two weeks developed--and trained me in--a program that's perfect for me in time and variety. I've been at this for three weeks now and already am noticing changes in my strength, stamina and shape, which my wife has also commented on enthusiastically. That's the real endorsement right there!

I can't recommend Coley highly enough. A great personal trainer and a great guy all around. My wife also got to work with Coley on one of my training days and put up a recommendation for Coley on The List:

"I worked out with my Husband's trainer today and he was wonderful! So great, so attentive--a great workout
with a trainer who pushes me but listens. We found our guy! Kind, spiritual and great at what he does. He
can come to you, or we worked out with him at a really great private gym in North Hollywood - At One Fitness
Really wonderful, highly recommended! Tell him Michelle & Paul sent ya... ~Michelle Cuneo

"Coley Mustafa Speaks is the BEST trainer that I’ve ever had. As a dancer I was reluctant to get a trainer because I didn’t think I’d find one that would suite my needs or understand me. Prior to working with Coley I searched yet, I didn’t find a trainer that had the program I was looking for. I was about 20lbs over the ideal weight that I wanted to be.

Not only do I have aspirations as a dancer, but as a print model, singer and actress, so a lot was banking on me getting the results I needed and getting them quickly! After the first week…my dance director and manager immediately began to notice results!! I was not only changing physically but working with Coley transformed me mentally and spiritually. I got the results I needed and then some in less than 6 weeks…by the 5th week I was set, but I still continued the last week (just because I wanted an extra competitive edge without needing my pictures “retouched” like most models do!)

No matter what your goals are big or small or whether your time frame is 3 weeks or 13 weeks, Coley will give you the results you are looking for and then some and you will proudly be able to do exactly what his company says: stand strong in 3d! This year is the year for you…now is the time no more excuses.

So if you really want to fulfill all of your goals, you will look no further and work with the BEST trainer alive: Coley Mustafa Speaks of Stand Strong 3D."

Working out with Coley is REALLY FUN, especially for me. Training was sort of a journey of self realization. I think of it as a TRULY life changing workout program, both physically and mentally… I really do!!

I have been dancing for years but after my divorce I was in a deep emotionally imbalanced zone for almost three years, so thinking about being active, working out, or even dancing was the last thing on my mind. I am so glad I started sessions with SS3D! It was the RIGHT DECISION NO DOUBT! I gained information, strength, specific techniques for my body; and most of all BELIEVING IN THE POWER OF THE MIND again! All of these important lessons are going stay with me forever for sure and will help me STAND STRONG every time I feel that “imbalanced zone” again.

I work in an environment where I constantly lift and move heavy boxes. After the third week of working out with Coley I felt stronger in my legs, arms, hands and my whole body (I am very serious!)… and believe me that feels so good….YOU JUST HAVE TO HAVE THAT FEELING.  EVERYBODY DESERVES TO FEEL THAT WAY!! Friends, relatives, and even colleagues were telling me my whole body looks toned. I forgot to mention I went from 178 lbs to 162 lbs in 8 weeksand gained lots of muscle!! So I guess they saw my achievement.

Coley is a very special person. He has a unique inner power and ability to understand and help. I am sure that everyone who has worked out with him feels the same. As a trainer he is just awesome, you’ll be sure once you start to workout with him, very friendly, patient, motivating, and has an extremely positive soul. Anyone interested in changing their body once and for all, getting healthy and STAYING that way, and having a great time… SS3D is the right place and Coley is the right person 111%!!

"I am 48 years old and wanted to rekindle my love for sport scuba diving. I trained on my own only to give myself painful inguinal hernia that required surgery. At that time I realized I needed a personal trainer to customize a program for me. I really disliked cardio work because I felt like a hamster spinning around going nowhere on the cardio machines. I enjoy weight lifting a lot. Coley immediately recognized my needs and introduced me to cardio weight training. He coached me through a rigorous 3-month program and pushed me until I dropped at every personal training session.

Near the end of the program, I attempted my Advanced Scuba Diver Certification off of Catalina Island. On one of the dives, I got separated from my diving troupe and surfaced 85 yards from the diving boat. Because of Coley’s superior personal training, I was able to swim the full 85 yards with 75 lbs of scuba gear and pull myself back on the boat without assistance. This saved me the great embarrassment of having the diving crew lower the zodiac and haul me out of the ocean. I was awarded the Advanced Diver Certificate!! On the same trip, I had enough energy left to bag my first lobster! Thank You, Coley!!"

"I began training with SS3D because a friend of mine was training was a client, and she shared her testimonial with me as well as me witnessing the change in her physique. My experience with SS3D was wonderful! Coley was patient with me and never let me slack on the workout regimen. He listened to the goals I had for body, and identified other areas he wanted to enhance in my muscle tone and physique.

Training with Coley has affected and enhanced my life in a huge way. I feel a lot more confident about my body, I feel good in a bikini, I love that my body feels tight and toned. My eating habits have improved and I have more energy. I'm a lot more focused. The body image I had for myself is now realized because of working and training with SS3D. If you are thinking about training with Coley, DO NOT hesitate or think twice about it. It's the best investment you'll ever make in yourself and your overall strength mind, body, and spirit."

"I started training with SS3D to help maintain my fitness goals. Coley's motivational spirit is a breath of fresh air, especially when you need that extra push. His dedication, discipline and passion for fitness are infectious -- even at 6 a.m.! I have worked with several personal trainers over the years who apply a lazy one-size-fits-all approach to their clients. Coley was quickly able to target my weaker areas and tailor a program suited to my unique needs. He listens and pays attention to your lifestyle and helps make fitness fun and easy. From food journals to follow-up calls, he becomes a dependable friend who won’t let you fail. After only one training session, you’ll be hooked. SS3D is my secret weapon!"

"I began working out with SS3D in March of 2010. I trained for only about a month due to my conflicting work schedule, but I acquired a perspective that I keep with me as I train on my own. That is keeping the goal of not just gaining a better body but enhancing my life ;) "
